So I have been struggling with this as well and I think I have found a work around/fix.
And it has to do with what John mentioned and uninstalling the player.... sort of, because I can remember running the uninstaller and it not fixing it. So here is what I did. Go to this directory C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash And find the Flash.OCX file. All I did was rename it to something different so IE wouldn't be able to find FP7 and I would be able to track down what site it was reverting on. But to my surprise it seems like it's working now. It's been over 3 days without having to re-install the player. So if you do uninstall the player go to that directory and make sure that that file isn't there. I hope that helps.

My Flash player keeps silently reverting to version 7, I don't know if it's a website I visit forcing a silent 'downgrade', or something to do with my PC (win XP). Anyone else experiencing this on the list? Solutions? Causes? Etc.
